Oh look….

Pool 2: Toulouse, Leicester, Ospreys, Benetton Treviso

How often are at least two of those first three in the same pool? 😕

Pool Three: Biarritz, Harlequins, Connacht, Zebre

Not what you would call the pool of death

Munster – Saracens. Yes! I see a Ballyhoura trip coming up.

Brilliant; a few of us decided to forego the internationals this year for a trip to Munster to be part of that crowd…Muster v Embra; oh yes!

Tough draw for us (Ulster) Northampton, Glasgow Warriors, Castres no easy team in that pool. Although all the pools are getting more and more competitive. Wee trip to Glasgae could be in order

Ospreys are doomed in Europe again 😥

“How often are at least two of those first three in the same pool?”

Even on a totally random assignment 24 teams, 6 pools, 2 out of 3 in the same pool – don’t think the odds are that low? When you consider that they are seeded and sorted so that each group doesn’t have teams from the same country in it, the probability calculation gets too much for my wee brain at lunchtime; but I think its 2009 since it last happened?

Yep not a great group for Tigers but could be worse I suppose
